CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET staff on October 02, 2009

SoftCAT offers to help organize programs that make up your computer. By cataloging everything with an easy-to-use layout, its manual input keeps this program from being brilliant.

With all commands laid out clearly and a useful example database already set up, we slid directly into navigating this program. While not hard to do, setting up a database required a great deal of information from us. Its New Entry form was not unlike filling out online paperwork by inputting Title, Publisher, Category, and its Location on our computer. Away from this primary screen, we appreciated the added tabs for more information, especially the purchase price, registration, and warranty information, which so often get lost down the road. While we had a simple time navigating the collection, as it was organized by categories and made finding our info a snap, we were left a little disappointed by all of the manual input. We wished it was like other programs we've tested that allowed us to input bar code numbers, which automatically populated a program's information. The program offers a helpful feature to run reports based on specific criteria about your collection, but didn't take away from the unnecessary slog through manually inputting data.

SoftCAT has a 30-day and 20-entry-per-database trial limitation. Though it functioned as promised, we do not recommend this program because of the amount of time and manual input required to build a database.

Publisher's description

From FNProgramvare :

SoftCAT is the ultimate software organizer database. The AutoCatalog feature will automatically add all programs installed on your computer. SoftCAT will help you know what you have and where it is, but it will also help you keep track of important information like serial number, and other registration information. You never know when you need this information. More than 30 data fields will help you track information like program title, version, publisher, platform, type (commercial, freeware, shareware, etc.), category (Desktop Enhancements, Games, Utilities, etc.), price, installation date, installation folder, product homepage, serial number, and registration name. You can password protect your database to prevent unwanted users from opening your database. Use the backup function to make backup copies of your valuable data. SoftCAT uses pop-up menus for quick access and navigation. SoftCAT comes with a sample database to get you started and a comprehensive context-sensitive on-line help system. SoftCAT is intuitive and easy-to-use, and you will soon find that SoftCAT is all you ever need to keep track of your software. Version 4.01.02 added a Search section on the toolbar (Search, Show Previous, Show Next and Show Result buttons).
